Thinking About Switching to Fuel Injection...

Hey guys...
I'm thinking about switching from a carb to fuel injection. Anybody have any input as to what type of fuel injection system i should get? I really dont want to get TPI. I know it will gost over a G for the system itself...but i do have someone who will do a decent job for me...also anybody know of anyone that does a good fuel injection tuning job?

Thanks
Jon

going with TPI you can get it alot cheaper than the aftermarket stuff, or you can switch to an lt1 i suppose

I swapped my 86 TA from carb to TPI using a GTA as a donor car.

Find yourself a TPI donor camaro, and slap a stealth ram on to of it instead.

Holley Stealth Ram intake is very similar to the LT1 but will fit the older engines with the rear distributor. Not sure what computer setup would work best though.

Yeup, its similar to a LT1. But a TPIS Miniram is more similar to a LT1 then the Stealthram is.

MiniRam



Stealth Ram


The TPI ECM works with both....

I think the price of the Steath Ram makes it the better choice but they're both good options.
